Squeaking when turning wheel

[Frid]

So this has been a recent issue since I got my rims put on before I went back overseas after R&R, but I'm completely sure it's not a rubbing issue. When I turn my wheel to the left and right at a certain point I can hear a squeaking noise coming from the engine bay. I had someone else turn the wheel while I stuck my head down by the steering shaft and it sounds like that is what is makng the noise. Doesn't sound like its the rack and pinion or a power steering pump chatter and my reservoir for the fluid is full too. Anyone have any insight on this?

I have this problem on mine. Spoke to the dealer about it. They will be working on this next time I take it in.

Ya dude after 2 weeks having my brand new ss and it started to do that it's not your rims rubbing. I forgot what exactly what happens but I know once you bring it to your dealer they are gonna have to order something to fix it! I mine hasn't done it since!

[Frid]

Thanks for the info. I'm not home for a few months but if you can find out exactly what it was that'll help out in the long run.

Greetings Frid,

I'm sorry about the squeaking you hear when turning the wheel. I know that must be displeasing for you. Have you considered taking your vehicle in to have this concern diagnosed? I'd be more than happy to schedule an appointment for you. Feel free to message me for additional assistance! I'd look forward to interacting with you.

Best regards,

Many/most cars will make power steering noise when you get to the end of the movement (ie: near lock), especially if the car is not moving. As increased load is placed on the pump at extremes.

JimeE its not that kind of noise. I know of what you are talking about but this problem that they are talking about is something that can be fixed

Do you have after market end links had the same issue they were binding up changed them out issue gone...

[Frid]

Everything is stock in the front besides drop springs and they have been on for a good while now.

Anyone got any more info about this? Overseas, so I can't take the car into a shop to have it checked out. When the windows are rolled up, I can heard a clatter sound when I hit a bump too whether it be a small or big one.

I had the same issue with my 2011 Camaro RS, only has 11,500 miles on the car, started to make a squeaky noise and feel when turning the steering wheel left or right, took it to the dealer today and they said I needed a new rack and pinion, I said wow really I baby my care and with such low mileage, just hope this is just a one time issue with this car.

[Frid]

I was wanting to hope it wouldn't be that. Still doesn't explain the clunking sound I get when I hit bumps in the road though....or maybe it does....idk lol.

[Frid]

Mine doesn't even have 11k miles on it.
